Linnéa's Berry Pie

Let's start this week with something sweet!

Linnéa is my niece, and she served this super-great berry pie when I visited her and her family this summer. It was absolutely delicious! You can use any berries you want - and frozen are fine, just let them thaw a little bit. This one was made with -I think - raspberries and blueberries.

Put the berries in an oven-proof dish. Melt the fat and add the sugar. Mix flour with baking powder, salt and vanilla sugar, and stir into the batter. Finally add the egg and the syrup. Cover the berries with the batter.

Bake at 175°C for 30-45 minutes until the surface is golden brown and looks caramelized. Serve with ice cream.
